The Island of Anarchy

It is late in the 20th Century. The Federal Government of Europe rounds up its troublesome anarchists and ships them off to a South Sea Island. Hooray, one thinks. But, of course, all does not go smoothly….. Published in Reading, England, in 1887, this extraordinary tale is by turns prophetic and hopelessly dated. It also raises important questions about the nature of the State and the Law. Reproduced here in a glorious letterpress edition.
